Hindu, Strict Vegetarian Run
Generally a Rimworld faction would source their food from a mix of meat and veg. What if your faction had moral precepts that forbid meat like so many cultures of India do?
Could you step up to the challenge of a strict vegetarian diet?
See the full guide to the Space Hindu strict vegetarian run here.
Victorian Gentleman Adventurer
The Victorian period of the British Empire, was a time of high adventure for many a British gentleman. Steamships made the world accessible as never before and enormous fortunes made from industrial investments provided disposable funds for private travel for research, exploration and even whimsical purposes like shooting big and exotic animals for trophies.
The large technological gap between Britain as the first modern nation in the world and much of the rest of the world provided a very Rimworld like experience. A world where finely tailored men, au fait with the latest science, armed with breech loading rifles rub shoulders with naked animists armed with the traditional pointy stick.
See my article here for how to recreate the Victorian Gentleman Adventurer in Rimworld.
Woodstock
The baby boomers of the western world were perhaps the most degenerate, narcissistic and hedonistic of generations in human history. Not much epitomised their moral depravity better than the Woodstock music festival.
Moral depravity is very much on the menu for Rimworld. To recreate the specific kind of depravity of the boomers make a custom ideology based on the High Life meme and possibly also Nudism. Main precepts would be free love and essential drug use.
Miscellaneous Conceptions
Toxic Wasters
Make all your initial colonists into the Waster xenotype and settle a polluted tile.
The Recyclers
Coming soon!
There we go, lots of fun themed faction builds to try out in Rimworld. Which would you try?
